Rails 2.2 RC1: i18n, thread safety, docs, etag/last-modified, JRuby/1.9 compatibility
Posted by David October 24, 2008 @ 12:47 PM
Rails 2.2 is almost ready for its final release, but before we christen the gems, we’d like to have everyone test out a release candidate. Rails 2.2 is a major upgrade that includes a wealth of new features and fixes.
Chief inclusions are an internationalization framework, thread safety (including a connection pool for Active Record), easier access to HTTP caching with etags and last modified, compatibility with Ruby 1.9 and JRuby, and a wealth of new documentation.
Mike Gunderloy has compiled an exhaustive list and walk-through of many of the interesting new features for the Rails 2.2 release notes.
To help test the Rails 2.2 release candidate, please install with:
gem install rails -s http://gems.rubyonrails.org -v 2.2.0
Hopefully there will not be too much folly in the RC and we can quickly move to a final release. But it requires your help to get there.
Note that this release is called 2.2.0, not 2.1.99 as our previous naming scheme would have dictated. So the final release of Rails 2.2 will actually be 2.2.1 (if we only need one RC).
Brazilian/Portuguese Railers, check out the Release Notes in portuguese: http://www.akitaonrails.com/2008/10/24/tradu-o-ruby-on-rails-2-2-release-notes
Great changes. I also note the new naming scheme where 2.2.0 is a RC, rather than a stable. 2.2.1 will be stable. Yay!
Sounds good.
Yey! This is how the world ends! (In a good way)
I have some problems with mysql gem After some tryes I have installed it with: sudo gem install mysql——with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
but rails now give me messages like:
LoadError: Failed to lookup Init function /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems….
Any Ideas? Seems to be some missing path…but can’t solve this.
Great stuff!
Cheers to I18n team for first I18n-compatible Rails!
I am glad that we have a lot better documentation this time. I just cannot imagine how awesome it is.
Thanks a lot. Installing in the background already.
Just a quick one, talking about compatibility: If someone is experiencing compatibility issues with Ruby Enterprise Edition and this release, could you guys let us know about them, please?
Thanks a lot, Keep up the good work.
A.
Looks Excellent! I’ve got a new project starting soon, so perfect timing for me :)
Thanks Mike for the great summary!
I couldn’t wait for the I18n support!
@tejo: maybe your mysql gem isn’t installed correctly. Try it at irb: > require ‘mysql’ =>true It should return true if its correct.
If fails look at these link, maybe helps: http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/249986
I would like to say “Great Job” to those that worked on this release. I cannot wait to play with all the new features/updates.
In the afternoon, i just updated from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2 and make a latest app pass all ‘rake spec’ . Just now, i upgrade to 2.2.0. With some tiny effort, only the parts using searchgasm have problem.
Wonderful work!

@Csiszár Attila thanks for your help…but still get the same error… =(
Thank you guys, fantastic news!
Nice summary. I would just like to point out that Enumerable#several? mentioned under 9.4. was actually renamed to many? inba0f38f8.
Awesome :)
I wonder when Active Record will get proper encapsulation of ‘attributes’. At present it’s impossible to have an interface on a model object.
FAIL!
Cheers! Rails!!
Thanks, Miha – the Release Notes were an RC themselves ;)
UPDATE about the mysql gem madness:
After a load of pain and suffer i solved Installing mysql5 client from port
sudo port install mysql5
and re-installing the mysql gem with this options:
sudo env ARCHFLAGS=”
arch i386” gem install mysql -—with-mysql-include=/opt/local/include/mysql5—with-mysql-lib=/opt/local/lib/mysql5—with-mysql-config=/opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/mysql_configHope this can help somebody to save some hours of googoling.
@Tom, Had the same issue. I had to add
To the top of inflector.rb, surely not the greatest thing to do but get’s me moving towards testing ruby 1.9 with this rails version. Anyone know the correct way for the encoding to work?
Hmm, yea that should be a pound symbol not the number 1
This release is the first in recent times to not work with the pure-ruby PostgreSQL driver. Was this accidental, or considered an acceptable loss?
@Steve Purcell : Sounds accidental. You might want to drop an email to the core mailing list – http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-core
after installing not able to generate controllers

Be careful, If you use cache_template_loading in production.rb or else, you’ll get “undefined method `cache_template_loading=’ for ActionView::Base:Class”. Just remove the line.

Any idea how to solve this? Thanks
Great work!
Hi I18n team,
I have a translation in tamil language. How to add this to the language set u have.
Regards, Ratnavel.
Excellent
When are you guys expecting to release the final version and the gem?
Personally I prefere the old scheme – because it follows the rule of least surprise.
Hi all,
I have a problem with acts_as_rateable in rails 2.2.0.
ActionView::TemplateError (uninitialized constant <#object>::Rating) on line #10 of app/views/blah/blah.html.erb:
/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.0/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:102:in `const_missing’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/base.rb:2042:in `compute_type’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.0/lib/active_support/core_ext/kernel/reporting.rb:11:in `silence_warnings’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/base.rb:2038:in `compute_type’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/reflection.rb:151:in `send’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/reflection.rb:151:in `klass’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/reflection.rb:182:in `quoted_table_name’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/associations/has_many_association.rb:91:in `construct_sql’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/associations/association_collection.rb:21:in `initialize’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/associations.rb:1289:in `new’ /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.2.0/lib/active_record/associations.rb:1289:in `ratings’
This happens only in production mode. Not in development mode.
Any ideas???

I have the following error while trying to run the golberg submodule installation.
What does the new config.gems get you that the old $GEM_PATH and $GEM_HOME does not?
See http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowToUseMultipleGemRepositories
I just have a global gems repo and the wider use-any-gem functionality of vendor/gems located in RAILS_ROOT/gems by putting GEM_HOME to RAILS_ROOT/gems and setting GEM_PATH to $GEM_HOME:<the rest>
What am I missing?
Excellent
How does a reverse mortgage work?
Hi all, my name is Albert Shulze and i am the owner of Orlando Floor Restoration. I hope that my skill can help a few of you on this board. I am also a proud member of the Natural Stone Restoration Alliance, so if I do not have the answer, I can get it for you.
I couldn’t believe that the Rails core team pick the enterprisey and cryptic i18n vs natural language such as intl or similar!
Installed under Ruby 1.9.1-preview1, got two problems while creating new Rails application:
1) Similar to Tom’s problem with invalid multibyte char – resolved by adding #
coding:utf-8to the top of inflector.rb2) macbook-pro-strock:test_9 strock$ rails . uninitialized constant ActiveSupport::SecureRandom
Don’t know how to resolve second problem. Can you help me with it?
I’m having a lot of problems when porting from Rails 2.x to 2.2 with Inflectors. Such errors as:
uninitialized constant FileColumn::ClassMethods::Inflector
I believe lots of plugins depended on this method. How are you guys safely dealing with this?
@Strock
To resolve “uninitialized constant ActiveSupport::SecureRandom” while running rails, add this to the top of “rails-2.2.0/lib/rails_generator/generators/applications/app/app_generator.rb”
require ‘active_support/secure_random’
I can’t wait for Ruby 1.9 and Rails 2.2 to get finalized and the new Pragmatic Programmer books to come out ( I CAN wait for it all be get done right, though).
@pal, thank you, your advice helped me and I succesfully generated blank Rails 2.2.0 application. Now, when I try to start script/console, I get this:
